DC Starting Lineup...(courtesy of Washington Post writer Chico Harlan's Nationals Journal post entitled, "Today's Lineup from Citi Field.")
- A-Hands/Elvis/Anderson Hernandez - 2B

While Scott Olsen Was Doing His Best And Johan Santana Was Dominating...
...San Diego State University starter and (hopefully) future ace of the Washington Nationals' staff, Stephen Strasburg, was starting at home in Tony Gwynn Stadium against the TCU Horned Frogs. SDSU claimed a 4-3 victory. Strasburg gave up more runs last night than he had in any previous start, allowing 3 runs on 4 hits in 7.0 IP. The 20-year-old right-hander walked 1 and K'd 14 in SDSU's 4-3 win over the Horned Frogs, leaving Strasburg (9-0) with a 1.54 ERA after 70.1 IP in which he's now allowed 45 hits, 13 runs, 12 ER, 6 doubles, 1 3B and 1 HR, holding opponents to a .182 AVG while striking out 135 batters and walking 13. Strasburg had a one-hitter through six tonight, and then gave up two singles and a 3-run blast in the seventh that pulled TCU close at 4-3, but the Aztec's ace recovered with 2 K's to end the inning and preserve the lead, which held up to improve SDSU to 28-15 on the season. (ed. note - "What size cap does Strasburg wear, so we can fit him for a Curly-W?")
For a NY Mets Fan's Perspective on today's game check out the SBN's Mets blog:
• The SBN's New York Mets Blog: Amazin' Avenue
According To...
Newark Star-Ledger sports writer Peter Botte, in a column today entitled, "Pelfrey will be under microscope today", the NY Mets' starter:
"...was made aware of Manager Jerry Manuel's comments about all of the Mets' starting rotation not named Johan Santana (being) in jeopardy of losing their spots without immediate improvement."
Let's send Pelfrey packing...The Nationals and the Mets meet at 1:00 pm EST from Citi Field, game two of a three game Washington stay in NY...

Come on Hammer and Nieves...step up.
I think the Nats need to give the Hammer some right field practice so he can be an option over there if Kearnsie needs a day off.
If you're showcasing the Hammer for a trade, playing him out of position might be ill-advised...

The Nats need a complete performance
The first seven losses the Nats were playing great offense but there was no starting pitching.
Now the starting pitching is doing well but the offense isn’t doing anything
Luckily "Complete Performance" is Daniel Cabrera's middle name...

Woo-hoo! Go Elvis!
Can you believe that? Works the count full, fouls off a few, then pulls a grounder through the IF! He may not be the leadoff of the future, but by all means, try to make a case for yourself, AndyHands!

Roscoe, I’ll be in Section 44 at today’s baltimore game. I’ll be sporting my Opening Day Nats cap. I was surprised that the tickets weren’t that expensive for that section.

consequences=
sitting one of your best hitters? not sure how you a successful mlb franchise by benching your talent because he lost one in the sun.
30 times it's been said since that play...sunglasses were on his hat. Not on his freaking face.
Then that diving play where he dropped tha ball and didn’t even need to dive.
Then he’s been barking at the umpires after he calls strikes.
The sunglasses on the hat are one of those things that just kill me...
…i only listened today, so i’ll reserve judgement til I see it…
…and before I diagnose Dukes with a case of Milledge-itis…

sunglasses
don’t work when staring into the sun… and anyone could have been hand-cuffed by the dropped ball. And I watched a dozen guys question strikes around the few games played thus far today. When you’re as bad as the Nat’s you don’t bench Dukes. Even without his screw ups they would have lost today.
I begged the Nationals to start Dukes, I don't want him benched, plus the last CF to play when Dukes was benched broke his ankle...

Also frustrated with RZ
He’s KO’ing as much as he’s getting hits. Which would be alright if he could take a few more walks.
Let's not worry...zimmerMANN...zimmERMANN...zimMERMANN! ZIMMERMANN!!!
Jordan Zimmermann will save DC from the sweep!!!
